I'm confused. For the most part, /vp/ is very accepting

>>29726581
So it's a question of days before this whole storm stops?

>>29726449
Owlfags are the most annoying, that's why.

As a guy who's using decidueye it does piss me off that it has the stat spread that it has. Grass has always had the short end of the stick and when it looked like we finally had a good stater it comes with the most idiotic stats I've seen for it's design.
Sniper would be a terrible hidden ability unless they buffed critical hits. It's only chance at redemption it has is its HA is an auto trick room.

If you're looking at it objectively, I don't think it's a "just desserts" situation. Overwhelmingly, rowletfags weren't confrontational. They were happy with their owl, cool design, neat final typing. Sittin pretty while popfags and littenfags tore each other apart, with littenfags attacking popplio and popfags attacking luchalitten.

Today though, there's finally a reason to attack rowlet. An outlet for all that pent up insecurity about their own starter choices. "Now I don't have to feel bad for picking Tony the Tiger because slowl!!" "I'll take a girly starter any day b4 shitmon owl!!"

Just enjoy who you want to enjoy, hope for good HAs for all the starters, and most of all, remember that Gamefreak isn't really thinking too hard when it comes to game balance and design. Only the strength of the idea of Pokémon has enabled them to stay alive this long.

>>29726449
I'm not exactly sure what the fuck is their problem, but I can guarantee you it's all primarinafags as they always do raids to hate on shit constantly, despite "liking" it
You would imagine those who, were in the most literal sense of the concept, were anti-bullying since popplio was the most bashed on and hated of the three, but instead, are doing it themselves, to the point if you were to try to have a civil ballio thread for whatever reason, they would come in droves to relish in the fact that primarina is real and to bash on everyone, despite most actual ballio fans being extremely kind and accepting, WHICH they actually did with a ballio funeral thread, and even outright said no Decidueye on one of their threads because one shit poster on a thread posted it to get (you)s
It's actually rather ironic when you think about it, they were never really anti-bullying to begin with since they're the most hostile community here as of yet, so that brings up the question, what is their motive?
>Inb4 LEL BUTTHURT OWLFAG ALURT HAHAHA
It's not butthurt if there's actual evidence proving my statement

>>29726581
>>29726700
These apply to all of the starters though. Not even just 7th gen. All gens. Shitposters are quick to say that the other two choices are trash and by association each group passes off as annoying assholes to the other two.

"Ugh Meganiumfags are the worst defending their shitmon"
">Still liking Memefrog"
etc etc

>>29726581

First answer best answer.

>>29726449
People on this board will find any reason to shit on your opinion if it's different than theirs. Every conflict on /vp/ boils down to this single point. Most of the people here simply do not respect the opinions of others since they are protected by anonymity. That's all there is to it. It's just another petty squabble among underaged antisocialites and manchildren. This board's only saving grace is how quickly shit gets leaked here.

>>29727080
>What is their motive?

To rub their "best starter" who overcame its "bullied" stage and turned out elegant and pretty on everyone's face by the end of it?

Sure I'm not the only one who noticed many many, many people wanting Popplio to become something other than not ugly. You'd think that a anti-bullying gang like them (doesn't apply to everyone) would support Popplio no matter which evolution it would get and yet would get rather... uptight whenever something not that favorable is brought to mention. Like, I've heard plenty people going "I'm so glad Popplio didn't become something big and fat". Now they've got a final evolution they are definitely proud about and they aren't afraid to show their pride, showing how superior Popplio has become to the other two.

Says a lot about them.

I wouldn't worry about them, but expect them to turn quite abhorrent in the next five months.

>>29726581
Fpbp. Goddamn owlfag tears delicious.

I wasn't even aware that people had a problem with Rowlet fans.

As someone that doesn't like Popplio and likes Primarina, I would have taken Ballio too. It looks creepy, but it was so ridiculous it made me laugh. But then again, I was one of the people that switched starters because I fucking hate what Litten turned into.

It's amazing how quickly people forget the past when it makes them look good.

Wait, people only like Pokemon because of stats? I thought the whole reason people were complaining about the starters to begin with was because they didn't like the designs. At least Decidueye will wind up being more useful than my favorite Pokemon will ever be.

>>29726449
Other Pokemon fans get into their favorites knowing they're shitmon and hoping they become good someday, but accepting them as they are now.

Rowletfans didn't have that buffer. People liked it before it was a shitmon, then it became a shitmon out of nowhere. It's the same as if any other Pokemon turned into a shitmon within a generation. Like how every single metagrossfan felt between gens 4 to 6 before its mega.

>>29726886
This. Rowletfriends did nothing wrong, but we still got punished with a retarded stat spread and at the same time got framed unfairly by falsified stories and falseflaggers.

It's because the expectation was so much different than the result. Majority of people expected Decidueye to be Greninja 2.0, and certainly not a bulky, slow mixed attacker of all fucking things.

>>29726449
I don't think you understand how hostile owlfags have been to people that like the Incineroar and Primarina lines. They can't even stop shitting on their designs while the mourn the owl's stats. Fuck them.

Octillery is not one of my favorites, but I can respect good taste when I see it.

Am I the only poppfag and owlfag that never talked shit to any littenfag?

Sure I don't like litten cause it's design bores me a little but I don't go around talking shit about someone's starter

I always think keeping my mouth silent is the best option when it comes to opinions

>>29729178

Keep on thinking that. Trying to engage a rowletfag in a civil discussion about the problems in the design is literally impossible without them getting positively rabid about "defending" their choice from imagined attacks.

>>29728986
Let me direct you to >>29727602

Well, with everyone giving their say about this topic, might as well throw my two cents in

I have been teased the shit out of from both the interest and friends that I like a shitmon

"LOL anon you unironically like meganium? Your such a fucking loser, it's all about power that determines my favorite" it's things like this that really Piss me off because there are people that active on this board like poliwhorl but shit on others for not having a better starter choice because it's stats are low and it has bad distribution

Ever since day one I had liked decidueye and it took me a while to warm up to the others (incineroar is very cool Tony the tiger and primarina has to be the best tranny in existence), and yes, I did expect it to be this gens greninja and I would be completely happy I with that since I would know that I liked the most popular starter before it was known but it didn't turn into a speed devil, but I'm still perfectly fine with that because it has the best design in my opinion of course

But what I'm trying to get across is, don't try to make others feel bad just because of a few slip ups, it's perfectly fine to have a few flaws, nothing should be perfect or else it would be boring, right?

The only reason Rowlet had the largest amount of shitposters is because it had the largest fanbase in general. And now that's turned over. Just look at those self-righteously pointing fingers at Primarinafags for example, even though it was the most attacked of the three for the longest time.

They set it up as the chosen starter

And yadadada. The past two weeks Owlfags were the most obnoxious with how sure of it they were. Karma's a bitchm

You must that one guy that made a whole article on why you thought decidueye was stupid because of its typing, aren't you?

>>29729411
Yup
Everyone was being a shitter
Every one of the three starter fags jumped into other threads to declare that there choice was better
It got really bad when final evos where confirmed

My best guess is that we're just board and waiting for the game to come out, so if there's anything to talk about at all it's going to be bitched about.

>>29729134

People have complained about everything this gen.

But the Rowlet line was generally agreed to be the best (with a dip in the middle, but more well recieved than the other two nontheless), and destined for legend.

Now that it's stats make it not the competitive beast everyone was lauding it as, people tired of all that wanking are having a hoot.

>>29726449
I don't give a shit about what anyone says to any of these fucking starters because I love every single bit of them. And you shouldn't, too. Nobody is going to shit in your owl boypussy if you pick Rowlet. Stop being butthurt about the BTFO.

>>29726449
I like Malamar, Ursaring, and Torterra.

There will always be a vocal minority that makes every group look bad.
I've been picking rowlet from day one. I thought popplio was ugly and litten was the obvious meme-cat choice so I didn't want it.
I never made a single thread or post shitting on them though.
This could have happened to any of the starters.
If luchalitten is revealed to be "bad" as well there will be the exact same shitstorm as there is now.
The entire goal of /vp/ is to shit on everyone else's opinion. We don't actually discuss pokemon here.

>>29729727
It's really funny though, he's used an example of a few decidueye posters in an incineroar thread to justify his hate to decidueye fans.
meanwhile primarina fans have overtaken ballio threads to hell and back.

They say that as Rowlet flew away with Ash's lunch and refused to go into the pokeball in the last PV. If he does catch it, it'll be an unevolved jokemon, and Litten will be the main fighter.

>but le concept art doesn't mean anything
The concept art showed Lana as the main companion, and in the PVs Lana is the friendliest with Ash. If that piece of concept art was enough to show that she will be his best nakama this season, then it means that Incineroar will be his main fighter.

I'm tired of wrecking /vp/. I warned you that Rowlett was the Reddit Owl. I warned you that it was the most popular starter in Reddit and Tumblr and nkw the tides have turned. The kids and those who want the "cool" starter will go for wrestler especially the ones in Japan. Competitive bros and waifufriends will go with idol seal. Degenerates will go with the bird. Admit that you were wrong /vp/. You should be tired of being BTFO.

I honestly don't understand how autistic you have to be to see the starter you choose, then latch to it so hard you begin to be petty and pompous to other starters.

Mind you this isn't something that just applies to /vp/. It's a global fucking cancer of console-wars tier shitflinging that occurs on 4chan nearly every day.

Who cares. No really, who fucking cares. Just pick the starter you like, whether it is for type, or competitive usage, etc. There's no reason why you should start insulting someone else because he didn't choose your option, even if you don't believe his choice is as good as yours.

Retarded bickering over nothing ruined boards like /v/, and it's ruined /vp/ aswell.
